About The Librarian

Hello! My name is Julie Brooks, and I am the librarian at Running
Brushy Middle School. I have been in education since 1994. I
previously taught in Arlington ISD, Midlothian ISD, and was the
librarian at Jim Plain Elementary in LISD before coming to Running
Brushy MS. My gift of teaching continues while I share my passion for
reading and inspiring a love for reading in students. I believe the
library is the hub of the school and an enjoyable place to continue
lifelong learning. I’ve been told my whole life that books can take you
anywhere, and coupled with the information super highway of 21st century
learning, it’s a win-win place to teach, work, learn, and play.

LISD Library Mission

Our mission is to lead our school communities by fostering literacy
in an environment that challenges students to IMAGINE possibilities,
EXPLORE opportunities and CONNECT with the future and the world.
